Cock and bull story!

I was rather amused when I read of the activities of a black magic sect in Congo. Seemingly the sect is going around shrinking the size of men’s penises in Congo!

13 sorcerers were arrested on suspicion of the offence in Congo last week. The offence, called penis snatching, occurs whenever the sect touch someone’s penis causing it to shrink. The penis thieves then demand money of their poor (come on guys all of you must feel some degree of sympathy for the poor bastards) victims for a cure! The cheek of it all!

You could imagine that if they were using these powers to help shrink some fat bastard’s gut they would prove pretty popular. In fact they would probably put a heap of plastic surgeons out of business.

However you are never going to be popular whenever you go around shrinking the size of people’s manhood! In fact the sorcerers narrowly escaped a number of lynching in the capital Kinshasa. This is not a new offence however. In Ghana 10 years ago, 12 penis snatchers were beaten to death by an angry mob of 27 victims.

Needless to say folks, the Congo will not be on my holiday list in the foreseeable future and anyone I see from Congo that looks like a witch doctor will be kept at arms (or should that be penises) length away!
